## Steps

Accomplishing this use case is quite simple; there are two steps:

1. Creation of a snapshot of the project used as a template.
2. Deployment of the snapshot using the **New Project** mode.

### Project template

1. **Source**: Create a project snapshot for the project you are using as a template.
2. **Target**: Deploy the snapshot

a. Use [New Project](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CMJ/pages/197857553) deployment mode, provide project name and key. They should not match any existing projects.

b. In the [Analyze ](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CMJ/pages/197825592/Analyze+phase?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiZDEyZDE0YzgwMzE4NGFlYzhjODMxYzg0YmY2ZTE3MzAiLCJwIjoiYyJ9)step of the deployment, you will see that a new project will be created, and all existing configuration elements will be associated with the new project. No other objects will be created.

### Automation

Automation of the above steps can be accomplished using the public [REST API](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DCMFJ/pages/146052463).
